Default Radio replacement

Any ideas on a replacement radio for my 2002 L300? I would need a CD player and an Aux input jack. I really don't want to mess with modifying much (adapters). I'd like something that is quick, easy and affordable.

Check your local U-Pull-It yards ... the "upgrade" version of the OEM radio has all that you want, and your car is already wired to match the plugs ... enjoy

If your going to buy an aftermarket radio then your going to have to deal with all that come with it.

Does the OEM upgrade version have an Aux input for an ipod?

My 2007 ION also has an aux port. What GM rdaios have the same plugs in the rear I don't know, and I have no idea what "model" it is.




Just kidding mine is US8

I do not often replace a radio in my car(s) but I have found myself doing that off and on and over the years the costs of aftermarket radio's have decreased at phenomenal rates.
This outfit has some pretty good deals going at times. Specially if you watch for them. I am installing an upgraded radio including satellite capability in my 1976 model station wagon. A car particularly hard to do that for as there are no longer any radio's made that actually will fit it. I have been able to purchase some very well priced parts through here;
